vomiting

[sab]

I'm sure this is TMI, but c'est la vie: I've been vomiting all day. Could be because I ate nothing yesterday but meringues, one never knows. But anyway I'm so super-ultra queasy AND I don't have any more Paxil so I'm having Paxil withdrawal queasy on TOP of the egg-based vomiting queasy. I have Saltines, rice, tea, and ginger ale and I'm not that psyched about any of them, except the ginger ale, which is *not* flat; does it need to be? Do I need to eat the food things? I really genuinely don't want to at all.

As usual, herbal, homeopathic, surgical or hypnotic remedies graciously received -- anyone know what to do about a case of vomiting?

Thank you.

try to eat some rice if you can, and stay on the clear fluids, because being undernourished and/or dehydrated exacerbates nausea and shakiness. and get some paxil, because yeah, those withdrawals are hell.

dramamine helps a lot with nausea, for me. also, get a washcloth wet with very cold water and put it on the back of your neck. and try putting pressure on your wrists (or getting those seasickness bands). though I've never tried them, ginger, lemon-water, almonds, and peppermint are supposed to be good natural remedies.

why do I know these things?
